Whenever the city has probable cause to believe that the correct amount of room tax has not been assessed or that the tax return is not correct, the city's financial officers may inspect and audit the financial records of any person subject to Subsection A above pertaining to the furnishing of accommodations to determine whether or not the correct amount of room tax is assessed and whether or not any room tax return is correct.

Any person under Subsection A who fails to comply with a request to inspect and audit the person's financial records under Subsection B above shall forfeit an amount established by the Municipal Court, not to exceed 5% of the tax.

The city may determine the tax under Subsection A above according to its best judgment if any person required to make a return fails, neglects or refuses to do so for the amount, in the manner and form, and within the time prescribed by the city.

Each person who is subject to Subsection D above shall pay an amount of taxes the city determines to be due under Subsection D plus interest at the rate of 1% per month or the unpaid balance. No refund or modification of the payment determined may be granted until the person files a correct room tax return and permits the city to inspect and audit his financial records, as provided in Subsection B above.

Any failure to pay the tax shall be subject to a forfeiture set by the Municipal Court, not to exceed 25% of the room tax due for the previous year under Subsection A above or $5,000, whichever is less.

Information obtained under Subsection B above shall be kept confidential, except for persons using the information in the discharge of duties imposed by law or the duties of their office or by order of a court.

Statistics published on the room tax shall be so classified
as not to disclose the identity of particular returns. Persons violating
this subsection may be required to forfeit not less than $100 nor
more than $500.

gross receipts as reported by not later than 30 days from the end
of each calendar quarter for the receipts of that past calendar quarter.

Taxes not paid with the return shall bear interest
at the legal rate from the due date of the return. Failure to pay
